Sangh has lost its credibility by indulging in financial, moral corruption: RSS veteran

Vijayapura, Nov 11: In a major embarrassment for the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, one of its veteran activists has said that the hardline Hindutva outfit has lost its credibility by involving in all sorts of financial and moral corruption.

Addressing presspersons here on Wednesday, N. Hanume Gowda, who has been with the RSS for the last three decades, said that several leaders of the sangh have gone astray of the fundamental values of the RSS.

“Today, not only the RSS leaders but also the BJP men who have come from the RSS are involved in corruption, nepotism and dynastic politics. The BJP’s allegations against the Congress now apply to the RSS and BJP leaders themselves,” he said.

He said that the BJP accuses the Congress of practising dynastic politics. But the BJP is doing same as in the case of B.S. Yeddyurappa’s son, Murgesh Nirani’s brother, Jagdish Shettar’s brother and also the sons of several BJP leaders who are in politics.

Stating that BJP leaders such as Mr. Yeddyurappa, Mr. Shettar, Shobha Karandlaje, Anant Kumar have embezzled money, Mr. Hanume Gowda asked where such huge amount of money has come from as these people were not this rich a few decades ago.

Accusing the RSS and BJP leaders of being involved in land grabbing, he said that he faced a threat to his life when he complained about it to the government.

To a question, he said that there were countless people in the RSS who are unhappy with the functioning of the sangh and they would soon be quitting it.

He said that instead of supporting the fake Hindutva organisation such as the RSS he has now decided to extend his support to the Shiv Sena.

“I am campaigning against the BJP and supporting the Shiv Sena in the elections,” he said.

Sangayya Hiremath, party candidate in Babaleshwar constituency, was present.

Bengaluru, Mar 20: The high court on Thursday directed the government to notify on its official website the penal provisions to be enforced against private schools violating norms relating to fees and safety of students, among other things. A division bench of chief justice Abhay Shreeniwas Oka granted six weeks to the authorities to comply while disposing of a PIL filed by advocate NP Amrutesh.

Earlier, the state government submitted a memo stating that necessary amendments have been brought to Karnataka Education Act in 2017. It said any breach of students' safety entails a minimum jail term of six months and Rs 1 lakh fine for a convicted employee or member of the management. Any institution found guilty by the District Education Regulatory Authority will face disaffiliation and must pay a fine of Rs 10 lakh, the memo said.

Schools collecting donations and other fees beyond what is prescribed can be fined up to Rs 10 lakh and they must refund the excess fee.

In relation to schools charging for applications and brochures, the state capped their prices at Rs 5 and Rs 20 respectively, by issuing a gazzette notification last year.
